Sept 11.--H. P. Sheeran, seers -tery of the national democratic committee,bas been collecting the reports from Indians, his own state, and is very well satisded with the result. *"' he democrats ofIndiana are united," he says. "There areno feeltion in the party there. All Indianademoerats are working together with enthuemese and energy. I am confident inmy expectation that we will carry the statefor Cleveland and Stevenson, and my confidenee inoreasos daily as the campaignprogresses." Speaking of the force billsargestions of President Harrison in hisletter of accepltane, Beeretary tiheerin said:"It seems to me that no line of republicanaempaigning could be more unpopular andobnoxious to the people than this. I believe that the conntry is so determinedlyopposed to force bill methods that it willnet tolerate any proposition to inauguratethem directly or by indirection."Ex-Congressman Sowden, of Allentown,Ps., who was at headquarters, said: "itseems to me that the general outlook forenacese was never better than now. Itseems that the New York demoeracy is asequally determined as the democracy ofother tates, and that in the end we canexpect perfect unity in the ranks of theparty here as elsewhere, and with a harmonious organization we must be successful. All depends upon what New Yorkdoes. My opinion is that she is the pivotalstate. As she goes so will go the naston. Ibhave no doubt but that the democracy ofNew York will fully appreeiate the great responsibility that rests with her, and thatshe will contribute her share toward effeeting the triumphant election of our ticket.The south w.ll be solid for the party."Col. W. 1. JBlockwell, of Durham. N. C.,a state over which the republicans are wasting much expectations, recently wrote fo afriend in this city that the third party excitement was beginning to subside, and headded: "I am very well posted about thestate, and we will carry it for Cleveland andStevenson by a larger majority than Cleveland did before. You know that I am neverenthusiastic. The whole'south is cominginto line. I feel that we will carry thewhole country this time by a larger msjority than even the most enthusiastic everthought. I never saw people so thoroughlyaroused in my life as they are here now inthe old north state. I hope to come to NewYork soon, but in any case I will certainlybe on hand at Washington to see Clevelandand Stevenson inaugurated next March."A statement in line with the foregoingcame from Chairman M. E. Carter. of theexecutive committee in the Ninth congressional district of North Carolina. He said:"1 am confident that the third-party movement has seen its best days in North CaroIsa. The death of Col. Yolk was certainlya fatal blow to that movement. Since theyheld their convention some weeks ago inRaleigh and put out their tickets it has besome manifest to all thinking people thatthe movement is an utter failure, and menwho formerly co-operated with the' movement are now denying that they were everin sympathy with It. I feel certain that bythe day of election the movement will havebeen a thing of the past, and that we shallcarry the state by our oldtirae majority.Oar people are alarmed at the prospect ofthe onsctment of the force bill law shouldthe republicans come in power, and for thiretime being at least they will lay asideall differences and stand togetherin opposition to the bill. bhouldthe republicans succeed and theforce bid tIcome a law, our property interests would suffer a great shock, and wewould not hope to bare further investmentsof northern cavital among us. This is notmere politics for the oesas:on; we havetried republioan role in the state in thereconstruction. We saw our state debt increased from a few to several dozen millions, )Our credit was utterly prostratedand destroyed, uand the republicans wereunable to show anything in the way ofpubire improvements from the proceeds ofthe bond, they pretended to sell. Underdemocratic rule we have restored the creditof the state, re-established oar free sehools,and the state has attained a degree ofprosperity hitherto unknown to it. Do welike Cleveland? Yes. We know him to behonest, and he is the first president sinesthe war who has shown the least eoiisideralion for our section."PLOT TO G(i.

Its said it had been stopped onthe Moravia and checked on the Itugia andthe Normania, and the new eases on theHeandia were being removed as fast as theydeveloped. 'The Wyoming is not definitelyknown to be infected, but will be helduntil the authe authorities are satisfied of hercondition. 't'he I.a Champagne, fromiavre and Cherbourg. and the Aurania,from Liverpool, arrived this morning withclean brlls of health.'The number of new oases and deaths isnot large, the Heandia being the only one topresent further developments. Marie Jan -owitz, aged two and a half years, AnnieOlsen, aged eight, and Malke Merski, aged13 years, were taken iii to-day and removedto rwinburne island. 'There was only onedeath, that of Theodore Olsen, a threeyear-old child, who was taken ill at sixo'clock this morning, and died at eight.'There was another death on board theScandia, but it was not from cholera, Marzinia Bursa, a nursing infant, being takenoff by marasmnus.The sale of lire Island for quarantinepurposes has created great excitementthere. People from Islip and Babylon senta special guard of twenty deputies to keepthe cholera ptlents firom landing. 'l heysurrounded the health ofliesre and madeviolent demonstrations against I). H.

As it grew dark men who hadbeen concealed behind buildings began to move about as if more certainof concealing their identity. The healthdepartment people were divided intosquads. When the Cephas arrived off theisland no one could be found to pilot heracross the bay, and she had to turn back.Capt. Charles Wickes, of the life-asvingstation, had been engaged to bring the vesset in, but later refused, saying he had beenthreatened with discharge if he did. President Wilson, of the board of health, offeredWickes a better job if he lost his presentIone, and be agreed to bring the steamerover the bar. When the Cophas appeared,however, Wickes again refused, and it wasevident he had been bulldozed.Will Take No Emigrants.Loxnox, Sept. 11.-A telegram was received here by the agent of the Associatedpress from the Liverpool office of theGnionline stating that in consequence of President Harrison's circular no emigrants willbe taken after the sailing of the steamerNevada on Wednesday next.

Last December Price was ar rested for the murderof his uncle. . J. Cunningham, is thestreets of i.tte. 'The ease motive wasalways a mystery. boring the trial yesterday, in his defense, which was very weak,Price claimed that OCnnnlgbam hadcheated him in a number of business transactions, and also that he had been thecause of his wife's unfaithfulness. It wasdreveloled, however, that Mr. and Mrs.I'rio had never been legally married. Adocument was produced, signed by each,the man and the woman, agreeing to livewith each other as husband and wife, butthere were no witnesses to this document.Mrs. Price herself was not put on thestand. Witnesses for the prosecution testillfed that Cunningham had seemed as familiar with Mrs. Price as was Price himself, sod that Price had apparently notobjected. ''he trial was concluded yesterday afternoon, and at 11 o'clock last nightthe jury rendered a verdict of murder inthe second degree, with a recommendationfor mercy.At six o'clock this morning Price wasfound in his cell in an unconscious condition. He had taken a big done of poison.All possible efforts were used to revive him.but without regaining consciousness heSdied at 10:20 o'clock this morning. He lefta letter to the sheriff, but it explainednothing.Price was one of the prisoners who eecaped from jail last February with Crowley,Burke, ttafford and others, and was foundseveral weeks afterward secreted in theattic over Miner's union hall. As to whohid him there, and who provided him withfood, has never been learned. At the timeof his recapture there were some who believed that Price knew the murderer ofthe late W. J. Penrose and had beenassisted to escape for fear he would divulgesome secrets.
